Control groups allow an administrator to allocate system resources (such as CPU,
memory, network bandwidth, etc) among a defined group (or groups) of processes executing on
a system. The cgconfig daemon starts at boot and establishes the predefined control groups.
The cgconfig service can be disabled with the following command:
$ sudo systemctl mask --now cgconfig.service
Unless control groups are used to manage system resources, running the cgconfig service is not necessary.
The cgred service moves tasks into control groups according to
parameters set in the /etc/cgrules.conf configuration file.
The cgred service can be disabled with the following command:
$ sudo systemctl mask --now cgred.service
Unless control groups are used to manage system resources, running the cgred service service is not necessary.
